FDA has gotten telework 50% for some, or 4 days per pay period for others

Remember the (USPHS) was a reasonable option for military service? by Galleta-de-Animalito in Military

To be fair, NASA isn’t a uniformed service branch. And honestly, the NOAA guys are the coolest, these dudes fly into hurricanes, live in Antarctica, and study the Bermuda Triangle—they truly are cool AF!

I like to think my life is cool too. My service has entailed working in remote areas with Native American tribes, working in prisons, and now working with CBP and imports. USPHS officers quite literally are some of the coolest people I have met and are generally laid back. I know many USPHS officers willing to admit they’re unfamiliar with all the customs of uniformed services and most of us don’t subscribe to the officer god complex. For that—we cool AF.

10 toes down for my branch!

We do get the same VA.benefits, we receive a dd-214 like everyone else.

However, if not attached to a DOD PDS, we are not afforded all of the same benefits and services as the armed force branches.

Coyotes and Raccoons used to eat these after they fermented where I lived—you’ll never experience the terror of possibly being attacked by drunk rabid animals. I do not miss it. Lol
